Born Oct. 29, 1971, Jimmy was the 10th child of Esau Ray and Florence Smith Morris. In his 53 years he has brought much joy, love, companionship and faith to all who loved him and to those he met. He never met a stranger. An avid Redskins fan and wrestling fan, he never accepted the “Skins” change in name.
Jimmy was preceded by his parents, Ray and Florence Morris; grandmother, Sudie Morris (whom he adored); brother, David; sister-in-law, Doris; brother, Paul; and nephew, Everett Rich.
He is survived by Ruth Carlton (William Davis), Mary Rich (Jerry); sister-in-law, Bonnie Morris, Jessie McGrath (Joe), Seabrook Morris (Sarah), Barbara Prince (Chris), Billy Morris (Marcey), Joe Morris (Lori); and many treasured nieces and nephews.
The funeral was 3 p.m. Sunday, July 27 at Lower King & Queen Baptist Church, 204 Timber Branch Road, Mascot. Interment followed in the church cemetery.
